Overview of Current Transformers

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers defines a current transformer (IEEE Std C57.13) as “a transformer intended to reproduce in its secondary circuit, in a definite and known proportion, the current of its primary circuit with the phase relations substantially preserved”. Its primary winding is connected in series with the conductor carrying the current to be measured or to be controlled and its secondary winding is connected to the measuring, protection or control devices. Osborne’s designs and manufactures current transformers which are used for instrumentation applications, others which are used for power system synchronizing applications and others which are used in protection circuit application. They have been designed to meet specified current ratios, burden impedance and transformation errors.

Durable Transformers Deliver Peace of Mind

Osborne’s emphasis on reliable design engineering means that your circuit will have one less potential source of failure. Don’t take unnecessary chances with low cost commodity parts.

Do you want your customer to worry about how or when their current transformers will fail? Of course you don’t, because when current transformers fail, it’s can be dangerous!

By choosing to work with Osborne’s extremely durable designs, you proceed with the utmost confidence in your circuit’s quality and longevity. This sense of security will free you and your team to focus on the things you do best.
